kernel: vhost-net: stack overflow in get_raw_socket while checking sk_family field

A stack buffer overflow issue was found in the getrawsocket routine of the Host kernel accelerator for virtio net vhost-net driver. It could occur while doing an ictolVHOSTNETSETBACKEND call, and retrieving socket name in a kernel stack variable via getrawsocket. A user able to perform ioctl2 cal...
